I wish someone would design ... (my suggested design & other suggestions)

Someone should team up with MDs to design parameterized IUDs. From first exam to customized device to insertion in 1 day. Material cost under $1.00. Most of the world's problems are traceable to overpopulation.

If there is a good amount of money to be made in it, you can already be rest assured there is a pharmaceutical company somewhere already well into progress on them.

Not for money. Because it is the right thing to do. A little effort could have a major effect on overpopulation, by making contraception conveniently available and affordable to a large part of the world's population who are denied access now. People created this mess. Only people can fix it. Please, someone with appropriate talent, help solve this problem. There are few situations where a technological fix can be so effective.

There are many causes in this world that are just as noble, and would be the right thing to do, but unfortunately unless there is significant financial gain to be made, it's up to the backyard tinkerers such as yourself to take that first step and start. If it's something you are so passionate about, maybe start looking into things 3D Oz talked about and how you can improve on those things first. I'm not trying to be down on your plight to fix what is a big problem, and I applaud you, but it's not a problem this very minute thousands if not millions are scientists are working on to resolve right now, among so many other world important issues.

If all countries would stop fighting for a minute and focus time effort and money into medical research, things would be very different :/

I lack the requisite skills. I am old and retired and in poor health. I am in no condition to develop this myself. That is why I started this thread: to divorce having an idea from developing the idea. I hope that other people with other ideas that they cannot develop, will post their ideas here. I hope that people looking for ideas to develop, will read this thread.
